Modern Humans, Neanderthals Shared Earth for 1,000 Years
joffley writes "ABC News is reporting on new evidence that has emerged suggesting Neanderthals co-existed with anatomically modern humans for at least 1,000 years in central France, before gradually disappearing about 28,000 to 30,000 years ago. But why did they disappear?"
They didn't get FP!!! Biatch!
They became the French and the Homo Sapiens moved away!
They disappeared because God didn't create the world until six thousand years ago! So if they coexisted with us thirty thousand years ago, it doesn't matter because the world was created long after that.
Either that or they missed the Ark.
Of course, the article talks about how the Neanderthals were found to coexist with our species in France. And that explains why the French are so evil in the neoconservative Christian theology - they weren't God's chosen species!
Maybe the Christian Right just traveled back in time and killed them off because they're not mentioned in the Bible.
I know, I know. -1 Offtopic, -1 Failure to actually be funny. Hooray!
They didn't; they became Republicans.
I kid, I kid is getting pretty fucking stale
They never died out, they're down in New Orleans right now...
Uhh french people haven't disapeared, I smell them speaking french all the time.
Flamebait? Troll?! I spend nearly every day reading modded up comments about how Americans are fat and arrogant, but a silly French joke ... no no no, can't have that. It really sucks that Americans have to have a sense of humor but nobody else does.
"Derp de derp."
Because this is a democracy, where majority rules.
A recent poll shows that 42% believe in creationism, 18% in ID, and 26% in straight evolution. So why not teach all three and let people decide for themselves. Why is the idea of inclusion so threatening? If 42% of the people believed in scientology, then you might have an argument for including it.
Of course the biggest problem of our century is supposed scientists and learned people stumbling on a few interesting facts and making outlandish assumptions and passing them off as irrefutable truths.
Then a the haters come and latch onto these facts make a world from vein imaginations and then subject us the rest of society to their artificial hell.

As opposed to the living hell on Earth that is everyday life caused by religion passing off plain lies as irrefutable truths.
It is nice to know that your religion is contradictory in nature. How is this crap modded insightful?
Following science to the exclusion of anything else is also a religion. Perhaps you want to ammend your values.
